In our animal model, the above-described US system proved tantamount with other external US measuring units and presented a precise and low-artefact system, allowing reliable measuring of the urinary volume with good chances of preserving these positive qualities over time. We expect that clinical application of this system may help to determine the optimal voiding time and thus to avoid bladder over-extension and damage to the urinary tract over time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
